Took the kids to get their flu shots today. Cooper has always been a pretty easy shot taker, cries for a few seconds and is over it. He hasn't had a shot in over 7 months, though. Nora, well she's a squealer. She cries in such a way that I can't help but laugh (again, with the laughing) because I can't believe how she make such a noise without taking a breath.
So we take both kids in to the room to get their shot. As we get in the room, Cooper is saying how excited he is. "check my ears, my mouth, excited" Decide that Coop should get his shot first so he doesn't back out when he hears Nora's hysterical cry. He grabs the syringe. We try to distract him, but he wants to watch. He is more fascinated by the bandaid he gets afterwards he forgets to cry. He even THANKS the lady as he gets off the table. Steve holds down Nora and we were bracing for the squeal and nothing!!! She didn't even make a peep. As the nurse leaves Cooper thanks her again and she said she's never been thanked for giving shots.
